Who buys wholesale coffee in Knoxville
Knoxville is home to the University of Tennessee's flagship campus, and home football Saturdays fill every hotel and restaurant for miles. Interstates 40 and 75 meet here, Pellissippi State Community College and Knox County Schools add their own calendars, and the Tennessee Valley Authority's headquarters downtown and Oak Ridge National Laboratory to the west keep a large scientific, engineering and public-sector workforce on weekday schedules. Downtown Knoxville's cafes, bakeries and restaurants cluster on Market Square, Gay Street and in the Old City, with more in Fourth and Gill and South Knoxville, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park brings visitors through all year. Most accounts here are a cafe or bakery downtown, an office, lab or hospital break room, or a hotel that fills on game weekends.
Running a coffee program in Knoxville
The semester and the football schedule shape downtown; the labs and hospitals run steady all year. A hotel should step up for home weekends, a campus-area cafe should run a semester base with a lighter summer, and an office should follow its headcount. The Wednesday cadence handles each a week at a time. A distributor's case was roasted weeks before it was picked; ours was roasted the week it left.
October is the month to plan for. Home games and the mountains' fall color season land on the same weekends, so hotels and cafes on the routes toward the Smokies can see their busiest stretch of the year at once. Then the campus empties for winter break and downtown goes quiet until January. Knoxville accounts that set their fall orders early and step down for the holidays waste less coffee than ones that hold a flat quantity all year.
We also supply Chattanooga, Johnson City and Nashville. Every city we supply in the state is on our Tennessee wholesale page.
